    Pull the valve covers and check the guide seals.

    With the injection pump it would need to be torn into. Not a home job to rebuild one of those. Is the oil by the turbo coming from further up the exhaust (those leaking valves) or the turbo itself?

    Considering that you haul often with the truck, the 3406a would be a great upgrade.

    Same with mine yesterday. Took a few puffs to get it fired up in the morning. I tried using the primer handle and pre heater but no luck till the ether was used.

    Saw in another thread that your having a hard time starting it when the temp is under 60F. If the fuel line pressure is too low then it would explain both issues.

    I'm curious what your rail pressure is. Also how long ago did you replace the fuel filters? Were they really dirty?

    Now that it's primed again, any difference with max rpm? The 816 i'm buying has the same issue with the hand throttle. Jumps to 1400rpm when the engine is cold. Don't know about warmed up because it can't be driven yet (needs wheel ends serviced and dog bones)

    Yep the screw thats in the throttle shaft, turn counter clockwise to raise the pressure. Shouldn't take much (1/8th to 1/4 turn adjustments at a time) unless your pump is getting worn out.

    Good probability that the rail pressure is set lower for the single line pump. Couple tweaks of the fuel screw should bring it up

    What is your rail pressure at?

    Those washers that were left out when you swapped buttons will adjust that.

    Since you don't have a tach cable yet It's most likely either a fuel restriction of some type (filter, lines) or you're reaching max RPM.

    If your looking for a used one let me know

    Good to hear that the engine upgrades have helped a lot. What are your rpm's when the engine feels like it defuels?

    Since you have a pyro now to watch the EGT's, why not. If it starts getting too hot just ease up on the throttle.
